Why would they put such a message if they didn't have the GDPR in mind? I think like many other (mainly US) sites it's partly to make a statement, and partly misguided belief that they have to put some kind of message. In reality

It reminds my of a movie ("Les Saveurs du palais") about a former French president's cook who was also cook on Crozet island (not Antarctica, but somewhat similar conditions). To be honest I didn't watch it because I don

If you don't use a planar lens it will never really look good. What I do for my part is just use an enlarger to which I attach my digital camera with various tubes and adapters to get the distances right, and an enlarger lens. These le

They don't hybridise as far as I know, or don't give anything long-lived. An interesting hybrid though is x Sorbopyrus, a cross between a pear and sorb tree.

It seems difficult for the company to ensure that you have a work permit for any country you might be going to. There are countries where you really don't want to get caught working without a work permit, but even in more lenient place

It's not primarily a US phenomenon, but I believe it's easy to forget or to ignore for those who were not subjected to bullying. It seems to me like it's just how humans work when they're not properly socialized and educ

It might be different in the US but in most places I know, the national carrier is cheapest and the private ones like FedEx or TNT are used for special requirements, like faster shipping or special dimensions. There are a few cheap private

The stated goal is often to help the more remote parts, even if it costs more to ship to a small town in Brittany than to Paris.

I am French, by the way. I'm more or less aware of "what the French are", of how the blockade of Monaco happened, as well as of the "communist hell" that is the country -- it's not communist hell and I wish the
